The 10 tons should have 37.9% cement.
Let the 25% mixture be x tons
Then the 68% mixture will be (10 -x) tons.
Using formula for mixtures:
Let p for percentage and w for weight in tons.
p₁w₁ + p₂w₂ = pw
25*x + 68*(10-x) = 37.9*10
25x + 680 - 68x = 379
680 - 43x = 379
680 - 379 = 43x
301 = 43x
43x = 301
x = 301/43
x = 7
Recall that x, was for the 25% mixture, 7 tons.
a) For the 68% mixture, = 10 - x = 10 -7 = 3 tons.
b) For the 25% mixture = x = 7 tons.
Answer:
40 1/2 days
Step-by-step explanation:
Quantity of biscuits the Jones eats daily = 2/3 of a packet
Total packets of biscuits = 27 packets
How long will 27 packets last the family?
= Total packets of biscuits / daily intake of biscuits of the Jones
= 27 ÷ 2/3
= 27 × 3/2
= 81 / 2
= 40 1/2 days
Answer:
1st box: Asso. prop= m+(4+x)
2nd box: Comm. Prop= m+4=4+m
3rd box: iden. prop= m+0=m
4th box: Zero prop: m x 0=0
So 25%=1/4 so technically you just do 5 times 4 since you need 4 more to have a full 4/4 or full 100% so 5 times 4 is 20 so there are 20 totals toys in the bag
Answer:
-13
Step-by-step explanation:
Opposite of 9t = -9t
Taking the sum of 9t - 13 and -9t
Sum = 9t - 13 + (-9t)
Sum = 9t - 13 - 9t
Sum = 9t-9t - 13
Sum = -13
Hence the expression in standard form is -13
